Welcome!
This first of its kind assessment tool will reveal your specific presenting profile:
Whether you’re entertaining and dynamic (The Performer), a wise and inquisitive researcher (The Scholar), or anything in between, Badge can instantly determine your exact strengths as a public speaker.
When taking the Badge assessment, it is important when reviewing your answer options that you select the word which immediately comes to mind. Select words that represent your reality, not your intent.
